Gaming Servers

Here at PN towers we are looking to introduce some gaming servers for customers to play on. At the moment we have an initial list of games but would really like your feedback on what games YOU want to see.

If you want the servers to be successful you need to get in at the start of brand new games. Creating servers for CounterStrike Source will be very hard to establish a player base as many people will already have their favourite servers.

That being said if you have some people to kick start the server so its not empty it may take off. Currently I have one request for a Day of Defeat Source server which I'll probably setup on one of the Plus.net server sometime soon. Hopefully the guys who want it setup will be able to build some interest in the server and make it a success.

A LAN party is a nice idea. Don't have access to transport myself at the moment but it would be a good idea to get people together to exchange ideas on the upcoming games that may be successful.

Unless the Battlefied 2 server is Ranked you will probably find problems filling it. I setup one of Plus.nets server with the BF2 demo on launch and although it was extremely popular as soon as the full game was released people all left to play on a Ranked server. I tried to get the server Ranked but EA weren't even willing to discuss it they kept pointing me at 'Official Partners' and their overpriced servers

Its a tricky situation to know what to use the servers for. I've found the same problem myself trying to decide what to do with the 2 I'm currently Admin for.
